Provided is a CO 2 recovery system including: a high-pressure absorption tower; a high-pressure regeneration tower that partially regenerates a CO 2 absorption solution from the absorption tower through a first liquid feed line; a second liquid feed line that extracts a semi-lean solution having a heat resistance temperature thereof or lower from the high-pressure regeneration tower and introduces a portion of the semi-lean solution into a middle stage of the high-pressure absorption tower; a branch line that introduces a rest of the semi-lean solution into a flash drum; a third liquid feed line that introduces a lean solution after adding pressure thereto into a top of the high-pressure absorption tower; a high-pressure CO 2 compression device where high-pressure CO 2 gas from the high-pressure regeneration tower is introduced; and a low-pressure CO 2 compression device where low-pressure CO 2 from the flash drum is introduced.
1. A CO 2 recovery system comprising:
a high-pressure absorption tower that brings high-pressure gas containing CO 2 into contact with a CO 2 absorption solution to remove CO 2 from the high-pressure gas;
a high-pressure regeneration tower that liberates a portion of CO 2 from a CO 2 -absorbed high-pressure rich solution, which has been introduced from the high-pressure absorption tower through a first liquid feed line, and partially regenerates the CO 2 absorption solution to obtain a semi-lean solution;
a second liquid feed line that extracts the semi-lean solution having a heat resistance temperature thereof or lower from a bottom portion of the high-pressure regeneration tower and introduces a portion of the semi-lean solution into a middle stage of the high-pressure absorption tower to be reused as the CO 2 absorption solution;
a branch line that introduce a rest of the semi-lean solution into a flash drum to obtain a normal-pressure lean solution;
a third liquid feed line that introduces the lean solution after adding pressure thereto into a top of the high-pressure absorption tower to be used as the CO 2 absorption solution;
a high-pressure CO 2 compression device where high-pressure CO 2 gas separated in the high-pressure regeneration tower is introduced; and
a low-pressure CO 2 compression device where low-pressure CO 2 gas separated in the flash drum is introduced.
2. The CO 2 recovery system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an inert gas separator that separates inert gas between the high-pressure absorption tower and the high-pressure regeneration tower; and
an inert gas introduction line that introduces the separated inert gas into the high-pressure absorption tower.
